The Morfa series by Lucas Recchia was inspired by the understanding of glass as a malleable material. The collection comprises five models, which vary in size and shape, numbered according to the sequence in which the designer created them.
The glass, the principal material used by Recchia in his creations, results from material transformations through time. Time turns rocks into sand, that became dunes that became glass. "Time changes the way we see the world; it bends a straight line into a curve, it changes us, and this morph stands for the way I see the world."
Morfa nº 01 has a variation of two sizes and can be produced in glass, aluminum, or bronze. All pieces in this series are indicated for indoor use, such as side or coffee tables.
The side tables Morfa have the following finishes options: Transparent glass, Amber glass, Wine glass, Blue glass, Green glass, Grey glass, Polished Aluminum, Unpolished Aluminum, Polished bronze, Unpolished bronze, and fused glass.
The processes of fusing glass and metal are handmade, allowing variations in color, texture, and slight changes in size and weight. The glass bubbles are part of the handmade production process; the bubbles’ quantity and size are uncontrollable variables.
